So it’s exciting, despite the disparity in form and quality. This is despite the fact that in four of the last eight seasons this meeting has ended 0-0.

Hello world!
It’s the first against the 14th in the Premier League this year, and also first versus second in all-time English Championship titles. The country’s two biggest clubs meet, one on course to win their 20th league title and the other, well, unlikely to add to their own tally of 20 any time soon. Manchester United have lost their last four games in all competitions, their players still seem to have no idea what new head coach Ruben Amorim wants them to do, are generally miserable and lack both cues and insight. chance. But still, they wear the Manchester United jersey and as they showed at Manchester City last month, that can sometimes inspire them to do crazy things.
“In football, one match, anything can happen,” Amorim said this week. “If you talk about the season, almost every time the best one wins. At the moment they are better than us but we can win any match.
